Tafy from Lord Salisbury,

LONDON, April AT the colonial c,nfer-
ence at the foreign Office to-day Lord Sails
bury welcomed the delegates, who, he said,
rere engage in work originally ereat-a
movement toward the imperial throne if ii
might incur danger. England's policy was,
however, essentially pacific. but the danger
of Il war arising from the policy of some
other country should induce colonists to
make their defensss efficient. Distant
parts of the empire were within the
sphere of possible aggression. Eu-
ropean nations were showing increased
desire for colonial or foreign possessions. A
solemn and reaso nable sense of interest
and security which the colonies had in the
shield which the imperial government threw
over them should convince them it was to
their interest to contribute men and means
to the mutual defense. He hoped the con-
nection between the colonies and England
would become more real and finally would
be presented to the world the spectacle of q
vast empire founded neither on force or
subjection. butsympathy and resolute coop

a Noted Burglar Caught

CHICAGO, ILL, April LA special from
Atlanta, Ga, says: The recent burglaries
which created such q sensation throughout
the state, have been engineered by the no.
torious fur robbers who first came into no.
tlce in Cleveland last January, and subse-
quently murdered Officer Halligan on a
train, near Ravenna, D. One of tho bur-
glars, Pat Hanley, is in the Hall county Jail,
desperately wounded, while another is in
the Worth county Jail in the same condition.
About March /, six strange men visited At
lanta. They soon perceived that they
were watched and disappeared. A week later
q systematic series of burglaries began in
two directions. Within three weeks dozen
different towns were visited and plundered.
The sum total Of money secured is thought
to be over $4,000. Tho men worked in
two gangs. In an ARRAY at Harmony Grove
Hanlsy was shot and captured, and says he
will plead guilty when his case ID called.
Photographs Of Hanley were sent to ]. w.
Schmitt, superintendent Of police at Cleve-
land. There is no doubt about his being
one of the men and that the other three are
Charles Morgan, Billy Harrington and Mat
thew Kennedy. Last week the sheriffs of
three counties organized q party to hunt
down the other band. Coming upon the
burglars at Baconton they had q battle, in
which Sheriff Hurst was severely wounded,
az was one of the Burglars. The news is
that the wounded burglar was run down in
Worth county and il now in Jail in that
placA.

Human Fiends.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, April 4.-Three fends,
IN human form, we're shot this afternoon in
the outskirts Of the city at q place made
famous by the shooting of the crew Of the
vlrg1nius. The men were two mullattoes,
Juan Jlque and Juan Gomez, and an Indian,
Juan Cocorras. They surprised the driver
OF team OF oa-laden pack mules and his
assistant, mere lad, cut them down with
matchetes (long sword knives), tied them to
trees and practiced shocking and revolving
oruelties = American Indian fashion - on
their victims until they were dead. Then
they.sol the cocoa for $68 and turned the
mules loose. They were captured and SEN
tenced to be shot. The case was stubbornly
fought, going finally to the queen, who re-
fused pardon. Last night Gomez made q
public confession, acknowledge he had
KILLED ten men and that he was ready to die;
that his mother had seven more sons like
MIN who would avenge his death. The
numbering proclivities in that family are
hereditary, the father was one Of Cuba most
notorious murderers. The prisoners were
taken out by the military and placed kpeel-
ing with their faces to the slaughter house
wall. Several thousand people surrounded
the military lines and looked on. Gomez,
the leader, spoke up and said: s'My mother
has seven sons and am the most cowardly
Of all for allowing myself to be
killed before 80 many people.

BALTrAoRl, Nd, March 31.-A special
from Rome gives the following as the text
of the letter Of Cardinal Manning regarding
the knights OF Labor to q prominent divine
of that city:
ARcHBIsHoP's HOUSE,, WEST MINISTER,
LONDON, March 18th, 1887.
MI DxAH LoRD:-I have read with great
assent Cardinal Gibbons document in rela
ton to the Knights of Labor. The holy see
will, ana sure, be convinced by his e1posi-
ton of the state of the new world. Hope it
viii open new field of thought and action.
II passes the understanding that oficious
persons should be listened to rather than
church officials. Surely the episcopate of the
whole world 10 the most powerful and
direct instrument in the hands of the
holy see for gathering correct local knowl
edge and enforcing its decisions. Who can
know the temper Of America, England and
Ireland as they, who have the finger upon
the pulse Of the people. Hitherto the world
has been governed by dynasties; henceforth
pie. and it has bishops in close daily and per.
sonsl contact with the people. The more
clearly and fully this is perceived the strong.
Or Rome will be. Never at any time has
the Episcopate been 80 detached from the
civic powers and united in itself and 30 able
20 see, 70 realize and to use Its pow era. The
failure to see and use these powers will breed
much trouble and mischief. NY
thanks are due to the oardi-
nal for letting me share in the srgu
ment. If I can find copy of my lecture
on "The Dignity and Rights of Labor" /
will send it to him. II will, think, qualify
me for knighthood in the order. Brentano,
